It is just such a democratic unit, a jazz unit, if it is done right. Each one has a voice. There is a central theme and you make a whole. It is such a sharing thing. It is such a community. Can you imagine if the whole world was run on these principles? It is a dangerous philosophy in a way. - Sathima Bea Benjamin

This tour marked the third time that I have taken my ensemble to perform in Europe. As in previous tours, the experience of performing and perhaps more importantly, the exposure to so much great jazz, provided significant musical and cultural experiences for all of us. Held during the month of July, these festivals are outstanding for exceptional presentations of both North American and European jazz artists performing in absolutely beautiful surroundings.
